Cavic v. The Molloy Law Firm CA4/3
Danny Cavic and Nevada Atlantic Corporation (collectively, Cavic) appeal from a judgment of dismissal after Cavic failed to post the security required of vexatious litigants (Code Civ. Proc., § 391.1; all further statutory references are to this code unless noted) to pursue the malpractice claims he initiated on his own behalf and as Nevada Atlantic’s sole shareholder against a host of former attorneys and accountants. Cavic contends the trial court erred in requiring security for several reasons, including that his appeal in a related case necessarily stayed this litigation, attorneys as a policy matter should not be able to contend a former client is a vexatious litigant, the trial court erroneously denied his belated disqualification motion, and other reasons we discuss below. As we explain, these contentions are without merit and we therefore affirm the judgment.
